THROUGH MY WINDOWS

 Hello  there! I hope all is well with you and yours! 🎶This is the day that the Lord has made, Let us rejoice and be glad in it!🎶  Do you remember that chorus/round sung in Sunday School or even church sometimes? It's amazing the nostalgia that visits me at the strangest times. It's a beautiful day here in the mountains of Bethlehem. I just love Fall. 🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎  I am  thankful today for: *I am thankful that we are not persecuted by fires as so many in the western part of the country are. I pray for them often.  * I am extremely thankful that we are all well. No positives for the virus. I pray that it stays that way and that my Mother's caregiver stays negative  because she has two other jobs now besides my mother's. Many of us are praying for the President and the First Lady, and those that have tested positive with them. * That I live in such a beautiful setting where I am never bored.

  Hello bloggy friends! This week I feel like concentrating  on how grateful I am for cooler temperatures and lovely weather.  I am content here at home in Bethlehem despite what is going on in in our weary country.

Domestic Bliss Hello there dear bloggy friends! It's Saturday.  I hope this week has been a good one for you and that the next week will be even better. My week has been okay. I have been having a lot of trouble with my eyes. I have Macular Degeneration and my eyes for the past few months have been wonky, at least the left one has. My retina doctor decided to change meds so this past Wednesday I had my first injection with the new medication. I do think it is better but I haven't driven yet so that will be the test.  He wants me to go to my regular ophthalmologist to have my vision tested to update my glasses. It's been 3 years. I didn't realize it had been that long!  *** I went up to the Poconos on Monday and visited with my daughter and grandboys. Judi and I went out to lunch. We drove to Wilkes Barre and ate at Cracker Barrel. I can't say that the food was that great because they are operating on a reduced menu and the Rib Eye Steak wasn't on the menu anymor
